Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy John Perryman assumed his duties Monday at a change of office ceremony at the Navy Memorial in Washington.
The contractor was ordered to pay $42 million for contributing to the torture and mistreatment of three former detainees of Iraq's Abu Ghraib prison.
Fleet Master Chief John Perryman has been selected to become the 17th master chief petty officer of the Navy.
Capt. Russell A. Herrell was relieved of his duties as REDCEN San Diego’s CO "due to a loss of confidence in his ability to command," the Navy said.
